that Py_INCREF boosts global _Py_RefTotal when Py_REF_DEBUG is defined
but Py_TRACE_REFS isn't.

There are, IMO, way too many preprocessor gimmicks in use for refcount
debugging (at least 3 distinct true/false symbols, but not all 8 combos
are supported by the code, etc etc), and no coherent documentation of
this stuff -- 'twas too painful to track this one down.

  in a string (gives you something to do with the dictionary returned
  by 'parse_makefile()').
Pulled the regexes in 'parse_makefile()' out -- they're now globals,
  as 'expand_makefile_vars()' needs (two of) them.
Cosmetic tweaks to 'parse_makefile()'.

  easier for people porting Makefile.pre.in-based extensions to Distutils.
Also loosened argument-checking in Extension constructor to make life
  easier for 'read_setup_file()'.

    reverse() didn't work at all due to bad arg check.
    Fixed that.
    Added Brad Chapman to ACKS file, as the proud new owner of two
        implicitly copyrighted lines of Python source code <wink>.
    Repaired buffer_info's total lack of arg-checking.
    Replaced memmove by memcpy in reverse() guts, as memmove is
        often slower and the memory areas are guaranteed disjoint.
    Replaced poke-and-hope unchecked decl of tmp buffer size by
        assert-checked larger tmp buffer.
    Got rid of inconsistent spaces before open paren in docstrings.
    Added reverse() sanity tests to test_array.py.

are completely skipped, rather than being treated as blank lines
(and then subject to the 'skip_blanks' flag).  This allows us
to process old-style Setup files, which rely on
  hello \\
  # boo!
  there
coming out as "hello there".

Fixed precendence bug that meant setting skip_blanks to false didn't work
under some circumstances.

Factored the guts of 'warn()' out to 'gen_error()', and added the
'error()' method (trivial thanks to the refactoring).

Dropped the 'collapse_ws' option and replaced it with 'collapse_join' --
it's *much* faster (no 're.sub()') and this is the reason I really added
'collapse_ws', ie. to remove leading whitespace from a line being joined
to the previous line.

This fixes the first half of bug #110611: the immediate exit when ^C
is hit when readline and threads are configured.

Also added a new module variable, readline.library_version.

PyOS_setsig(), instead of directly calling signal() or sigaction().

This fixes the second half of bug #110611: the mysterious ignoring of
the first ^C when readline isn't used.

sigaction() (if HAVE_SIGACTION is defined).

PyOS_setsig().

Fred, please check my latex!

(eg. "bdist_dumb", to generate both ZIP and tar archives in the same
run), tell all but the last run to keep temp files -- this just gets
rid of the need to pseudo-install the same files multiple times.

Run "install" the right way, by calling 'run_command()'.

we want to be be able to run (eg.) "install" twice in one run, as happens
when generating multiple built distributions in one run.

Specifically: added the 'sub_commands' class attribute (empty list, sub-
classes must override it) and a comment describing it, and the
'get_sub_commands()' method.

meant removing 'get_sub_commands()', and moving the 'sub_commands' class
attribute to the end and restructuring it to conform to the new regime.
